Some of you may wonder exactly what the Raspberry Pi is. This is normal, considering most havent been properly introduced to the new starchild of technology.

The Raspberry Pi is a computer, simply put. It is a tiny computer (about the size of a credit card) that can plug in to a monitor and a keyboard. It was created by a UK based company to help kids everywhere have something that they can learn programming with. The kicker is that it only costs $25-$35.

The Raspberry Pi can do most things your regular PC and Laptop can do, but it is also valuable because of the programming edge.

You can buy the models through Element 14 and RS Components, and the smallest possible order is a single unit. So, get ready to purchase your Raspberry Pi and get to having a great time with your new mini computer!

This chapter is dedicated to allowing you to know everything there is to know about the components that make up your Raspberry Pi.

What this chapter will not include is the list of differences between the different models. That will be included later.

Broadcom SoC

The Raspberry Pi uses a Broadcom BCM2835. This processor is optimized for multimedia performance, which is what makes the Raspberry Pi such a great gaming and video computer. Its cost effective, and its also efficient with power usage.

It also includes an ARM1176 applications processor, which is used in a variety of devices, including smart phones.
